Sorry I haven't been on here for the last few weeks. Life has thrown everything at me. There's a family emergency. I have a procedure to do next week. Today, the neighbor's metal patio cover blew onto our roof. And I still have to schedule for a rotting tooth to be pulled. I'm a bit overwhelmed. 😔
I just played the demo for Is This Seat Taken and it's quite cute and engaging. Makes you think, but not too hard. Looking forward to the full release!
Excited to announce our first game: Is This Seat Taken? 🚖🚍💒

A cozy puzzle game where you organize picky shapes in different settings!

Add it to your wishlist now and try to match them perfectly in the DEMO coming on February 10th!

Over the weekend we played our first game of Galactic Cruise. It was brain-burning with lots of positive player interactions. And the 2 player bot is pretty good. Set it up to play again, hopefully some night this week!

Discussed my annual performance review with my supervisor today. I meet or exceed all expectations. I joked "Yay! I'm not fired!" To which he responded, "Oh god, no. Then I'd have to do all your work." lol. Job security. 😆

Pls be kind to urself.

I'm not one for horror, but there are some psychological horror video games I can handle, like Doki Doki. Turns out, Slay the Princess is one of them. Honestly, it's an amazing game & I'm surprised at how much I laughed. Good balance of humor & horror that isn't too grotesque. Highly recommend! 👍

Once more for the morning folks, now up to 912
As of this weekend, this Geeklist broke 900 games. And I bet there are some newer ones missing. Can you think of any that should be on here?

(To check if something is already there, click the "901 items" button under the description and it will pull up the full list in searchable format.)
Games by Women & People of Marginalized Genders
There are several other geeklists that limit themselves in some way (one game per designer, noteworthy games). What if we tried to make a list that has all the games we know of that have at least one ...

If you don't see me posting much this month it's because I got into playing Infinity Nikki on the PS5. 🧚‍♂️

We got a used copy of Hadara & knew the top part of the dial connector had been lost. It still works for gameplay, but it won’t stay attached when put away. We contacted the publisher, but it’s not a current game in their catalog & don’t have any extra parts. Mildly annoying, but understandable.

Over the weekend, we played Fromage 2x. The game was engaging & enjoyable. 4 mini games to balance w/3 workers. Actions take 1-3 turns to complete, so it’s tricky to not tie up your workers. Lots of setup variability! Rotating board is a little clunky, but works. Definitely a keeper! 🧀

Here's my #BGStats for November. Lot of great #boardgames played. Favorites are Castle Combo, Let's Go To Japan, Your Best Life, Everstone and Fromage. Hoping to play Fromage again today, to solidify opinions, but I know already that it's a keeper! But dang does it make me hungry for cheese. lol.

Sad to say, Rock Hard 1977 isn't for us. Don't recommend for 2 players. Higher player counts should enjoy... if you like a strategic game that is often thrown off by randomness. More ameri-thrash than euro, it contains a few negative loops we didn't like mechanically. But it's very very thematic!
Last night, we learned how to play Rock Hard 1977. We played a few rounds before I got too tired.

So far, I like it. Really great theme. The player board amps are really cool! Not sure the 2p bot adds anything.🤔

Hopefully we can finish the game today before we have to leave for turkey day dinner.
